About the Item

A stunning and substantial pair of Art Deco table lamps by Mutual Sunset, crafted in the 1930s and embodying both streamlined modernity and neoclassical grandeur. Each lamp features a robust solid brass body with integrated clear glass columns, drawing on the architectural language of classical antiquity while embracing the verticality and machine precision of the Art Deco period. The design balances formality with sleek modernism—a sophisticated play of weight and light, symmetry and transparency. The columnar shape and stepped base give the lamps a strong architectural presence, evoking classical temple forms reinterpreted through the lens of the industrial age. These pieces are a striking example of how American Art Deco often blended modern innovation with traditional influence. Produced by Mutual Sunset Lamp Co., a respected New York lighting manufacturer active in the early to mid-20th century, these lamps exemplify the company’s reputation for quality materials, precision engineering, and refined styling. Known for supplying lighting to high-end department stores and decorators, Mutual Sunset catered to an affluent clientele furnishing upscale residences, urban apartments, and luxury hotels. Lamps like these would have been purchased by well-to-do clients during the interwar years—professionals, tastemakers, and business elites seeking furnishings that expressed both modern sophistication and classical taste. They were also favored by interior designers of the period, including those aligned with the Hollywood Regency movement or early modernist decorators like Dorothy Draper, who understood the power of bold lighting to anchor a room. Today, these lamps remain highly versatile. They pair seamlessly with interiors by designers like Steven Gambrel, Corey Damen Jenkins, or Jean-Louis Deniot, who skillfully layer neoclassical silhouettes within contemporary, eclectic, or tailored spaces. Whether used to flank a console, crown a set of nightstands, or add gravitas to a study or entryway, these lamps function as both light sources and sculptural anchors. A rare and elegant pair—rich in material, strong in form, and timeless in appeal, representing the very best of American Art Deco lighting with a neoclassical soul.
